Recruitment

We are still in the process of advertising for our residency and working hard to find our first resident. At the same time we are continuing to work on our credentialing document and I was able to discuss my current progress with one of the clinic owners today. We reviewed the whole document as it stands and highlighted areas that need to continue to be an area of focus and require more development. Together we worked on narrowing down the list of doctors who will likely be involved in the residency and what we are hoping each will be able to contribute. I plan to talk with one of the doctors in the next few weeks and want to be clear on what we need to ask him and get from him prior to the conclusion of the meeting.

We also looked over the curriculum overview form (form 3.1.2.A) that I have started and discussed areas in the DSP where we may want to work on having more representation throughout the residency.  The curriculum seemed very daunting when I started, but now that I have the majority completed, I am happy with the way it looks. It is definitely helpful to jot ideas down and then review them later as some of these initial ideas end up being helpful starting points for further development.  I now need to go back to the document and work on evidence 3.1.2.C to describe the overall sequencing of the curriculum.

Hopefully in the coming weeks I can take the time to present more of the document to the entire staff for further input and ideas!
